Welcome to SRP. In the classifieds here are folks who are expert at restoring razors and offer their services. If I were you I would get an estimate and leave it to them if you feel that the price is within what you would pay and still make a profit. You would need to forward photos of the razors and scales (handles) . We would love to see them.
A local barber shop here in Fla offers a shave for $15.00. I don't know how good it is but a long time old barber is doing them.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

Welcome to SRP, you can still get a straight shave in some places however most only use a shavette style straight with the disposable blades for health reasons, I am sure some states have banned the use of a straight while maybe some others haven't or all barbers haven't gotten the word. I had 1 professional shave here in Pa by a place run by very old school Italian barbers and although they used a shavette it was amazing.
If those blades are not tarnished I would get them sharpened by a pro from the site here and use them, if you not going to use them put a protectant coating of some kind on them either a light oil or wipe then down with protectant cloth
